Nicolette Russo
Heated Vinyasa
Nicolette first fell in love with yoga in 2016. She found that the benefits of her yoga practice expanded beyond her mat and allowed her to keep a sense of presence throughout her day. This mindfulness allowed her to manage her anxiety and she was immediately hooked on this new way of life. Nicolette loves the way she’s able to simply breathe and move her body in a hot room, completely shutting off her mind and giving herself 60 minutes to just be.
As a teacher, Nicolette’s main goal is to create a space for her students to experience these benefits if they need the atmosphere to do so. She does this by reminding her students to release the past and future from their minds as they flow through class, allowing themselves to be fully in their breath and body in the present moment. Nicolette’s energy is magnetic and she is deeply passionate about her love for yoga, her yoga community, and pursuing her life as a yoga teacher. Although she is energetic outside of the studio, her voice softly soothes her students into a meditative state inside of the yoga space.
Her classes are full of creative transitions, fluid movement, and deep holds, which allow students of every level a space to play - to either modify, or take the asana somewhere further. Her sculpt and strength classes use her energy to its benefit and are equally as creative, yet rooted in a strong anatomical foundation to set your body up for success as you build strength in your body. With years of experience teaching in studios, Nicolette has had the pleasure of working with students of different needs, age groups, and experience levels. She loves providing hands-on assists and actively demonstrates and cues modifications or advancements for students of every need.
